Brown Packages

The bounty of goods we purchased in New York has started to arrive. Today we received our first deliveries. One of the things we opened was the wonderful HUGE vintage one-off Chanel poster we purchased along with some colourful fabrics. I was suprised to see these things arriving so quickly. I am looking forward to the next delivery of special things we went to the other side of the earth to find for our clients and customers.

I love getting brown packages and love seeing my favorite UPS man (yes we know each other on a first name basis...scary I know) Love the vintage Chanel poster...where will it go? A good buddy of mine has 3 in her very large dressing room, they are framed in bright orange lacquer frames (the whole dressing room is orange and pink, soo fabulous)...enjoy!

So lovely meeting yesterday Anna. Shop looks stunning! Just after we chatted my work/life balance was thrown right out the window ha!ha! We can only try..... What do they say??? "the best laid schemes of mice and mothers" ? Enjoy the packages! Melinda

I established this blog in 2006 so that I could record my inspirations, my thoughts and my work as an Interior Designer. Based in Brisbane, Australia, my store Black & Spiro is always filled with a unique collection of interesting things which we scour the globe to find. I am most passionate about my family, my career, tradition, collecting, flowers, fabric, gardening, colour and quality and I will always strive to be creative and extraordinary in everything I do. I hope I can inspire you to live a bright and colourful life surrounded by the things you love.
